I would live inside of her if I could.

Static-X4931d ago

This is the first time a female character has appeared in a COD game is it not?

(Apart from the Russian sniper in the first one)

Oldman1004931d ago

There was also a female soldier in call of duty 2 during one of the russian missions.

Beahmscream4931d ago

Hope there is room for me too.

NJShadow4931d ago

From one of her first movies...

"It's a whale!"

"But... I like Zebras!"

If anybody gets that reference, you'll earn an agree + bubbles. =)

Son_Lee4931d ago

Isn't that from Snow Day?

NJShadow4931d ago

You are correct sir, lol. As a man of my word, here's a bubble vote. "Well said", lol.

Son_Lee4931d ago

Figured I'd test my knowledge, so thanks. Nice avatar btw, I play Mirror's Edge like I'm in a relationship with it (I am).

DazeLokrotan4931d ago

So um, do we get to shoot her. I'm gonna nail her full of lead.

FAGOL4931d ago

I'd love to use my LMG on her ;)

Look, to be honest the FTC should just stop.

MS has A/B and nothing has really changed yet...if you are worried about 5-10 years from now...just drop it cause the future is unpredictable.

Take this week's news, that 4 Xbox exclusive are going Multiplatform.

Yeah man I think Microsoft here getting to probe is kinda wrong unless you only have accessed to necessary information not complete access imo.

Abriael80d ago

Obviously they aren't giving them the password to Sony's computers and telling them "help yourself."

Eonjay79d ago

"Microsoft allowed to probe Sony and Ubisoft"

Sounds hot...

ApocalypseShadow80d ago (Edited 80d ago )

Maybe Microsoft should also talk and get help from their "congressional influencers" at The Capital. They had plenty to say on the matter before the acquisition. They are mighty quiet after the purchase went through. Almost as if they had a stake in the matter.

Abriael79d ago

Could you perhaps explain how this is related? I'm honestly curious since you seem to bring it up rather often.

He is pointing out how corrupt MS is, and how money talks. I think.

KwietStorm_BLM79d ago

I would say read between the lines but it's pretty damn clear as it is.

Bathyj79d ago

You should be careful upsetting Sony too much Microsoft.
You might need them to sell your subpar games soon.

TornRaptor79d ago

The games will become the best things ever all of a sudden.

Bathyj79d ago

Yeah I really doubt that.
I'm struggling to think of one I really cared about missing.

Hofstaderman79d ago

Bwhahahaha. Ain't that the truth.

Mr_cheese79d ago

The only exclusive im personally interested in from Microsoft is Elderscrolls and that's not even got s release date.

Everything else is genuinely of none interest.

OtterX79d ago

Microsoft never waits for the probing to be consensual.

derek79d ago

This isn't a major victory. They're essentially being allowed to call witnesses in regards to agreements they reached with Sony and Ubisoft which was initially blocked because Microsoft didn't make the request through the proper channels. This case is dead, there is no way the ftc will be allowed to unwind this acquisition.

Sephiroushin79d ago

they probably know case is death but want some proof to sue them for a few millions regarding other stuff, the ftc loves to sue everyone, be sure that as soon as all this end they will just go sue MS and end in a settlement.
